It would seem that counting the rest of the undervotes should add to the Bush total. I believe that the area's that Gore was the most likely to pick up votes have been counted and there are quite a few areas left that went rather heavy to Bush left to be counted.

What scares and disgusts me is the lack of standards to be applied. I mean one board counts nothing but a clearly punched chad. 20 miles down the road a pin hole is a vote and further down the road in I think it was Broward 2 of the board were holding ballots to their heads and doing Johnny Carson imitation to divine intent. Without any consistent standards I think this raises more question's then it will answer.

I imagine by 10:00am they will have found enough votes that Gore will be in the lead. I wonder if the counting will stop at that point?

>>if the manual review of the undercount votes is completed, there is no doubt that Governor Bush will pick up substantial votes. It's clear.<<

I pray you turn out to be correct!
